YOU DON'T NEED TO YELL!

As another poster mentioned, this could well be a hardware issue. IMHO the
easiest way to rule out many hardware problems would be to boot a Linux
Live CD - it it freezes in a similar fashion then it's a hardware problem.
If it doesn't, then about the only remaining hardware possibility would be
the hard disk, so run 'badblocks' from the Linux Live CD.
